Painful yet Planned
Purposeful & Portended
When trials and tribulations come your way
Do not despair and do not dismay
When sorrows roll like ocean waves
And those in darkness would misbehave
When all the world seems to live in sin
When hopes are dashed and lost are your kin
When joy seems hard to find
And the troubles that you’ve left behind
Come back around to stir up trouble
When life is hard and pain is doubled
Go to Him in prayer
You will surely find Him there
His is the way that leads to life
And on this pathway is freedom from strife
His are the arms that would embrace
Though we would often shun His grace
His are the eyes that see all things
His is the Word that new hope brings
He is the all surpassing Treasure
That encompasses infinite pleasure
His are the hands that hold the world
And His are the plans that are unfurled
Would you turn to Him and see
And at His feet will you bend the knee
He is The Great Fountain of delight
And He alone can make all things right
Nothing else is to be worshipped
No water from any other cistern sipped
Although this life on earth is rough
His grace is always more than enough
His touch will set the captive free
His heart can give you grace to see
He is the God who became Man
He is the One with the healing hands
He is the Life, the Truth, the Way
He is the King who will return on that day
To put an end to all of sin
To heal His land and to save all His kin
- A. B. Seal
